We heard one of the guys ask about George and I rolled him out. The guys hurried over, pulling out guns and I stayed in the shadows, making sure none got away once the shooting started. The guys came out and before the goons had time to pull the trigger, they were all shot and dead on the ground. Romeo jumped across the counter and I came out, twirling a knife, pouting.
"That wasn't fun for me ya know." I said and Murphy pulled me into his arms. "I'll make sure you get some of the next ones." He said and leaned down to kiss me, but Conner stopped us, pointing at George. "Can I do him?" I asked, grinning devilishly at him, he was scared out of his mind. "I think we should let the good lord decide if he lives or not." Conner said and emptied a 6 shooter and put one bullet back, pointed it at George's head and said something about being right with Jesus or something.
He pulled the trigger and the gun clicked, then we laughed and George was gasping for breath. "You know all good boys go to Heaven." Conner said and George took off out the door. Murphy said it was about time one of Conner's plans actually worked and I grabbed their collars, shoving them all to the ground as I heard footsteps and soon there were shots. I turned, ready to kill and was staring at Eunice Bloom, my new friend, holding a newly loaded gun at us.
Romeo took off running after someone who was at the stairs, shooting from behind. Murphy and Conner were telling her to put her gun down and she did, saying she was alone and she told them her name. I stared at her and she didn't seem to notice who I was yet, told the guys she was a friend of an old friend of theirs. They asked who and she told them Smecker.
They put down their guns and she finally noticed me. "Marietta?" the guys turned to me and I smiled and put up my knife. "Hey Eunice." I said, coming over to her. "What are you doing here?" "Marietta, what's going on?" "Who the fuck was that guy?" "That's the shooter you have been looking for." "Who the fuck is this broad? What the fuck is going on here!" Romeo said and I smirked at what she said in return.
She told us she was controlling the investigation from the inside, she was working with three that aided the guys in the past, but hasn't told them because she has to have some fun. Murphy said the three cops that Smecker worked with last and I was standing next to her and she turned to me. "So, you're in with the Saints?" she asked and I shrugged. "I guess I am." "Does she know about you Marietta?" Murphy asked and I shook my head.
"About what?" "Nothing, later." "Now this just won't do."
She told the guys where to drag the goons and I helped, but it was hard in my outfit. "Marietta, just sit down and rest your shoulder, it must have hurt shoving us down like you did." I was about to say something, but his look made me decide to let him have one. She told us to get outta here and that she would meet us later, so we went back to Docs. Murphy and I went to go upstairs, but Conner grabbed his brother's shoulder.
"Not now you two." He said and I rolled my eyes. "Come on Conner, just a quickie?" Murphy mumbled and Conner sighed, but still shook his head. "No, let's get some drinks and get ready for when the guys show up." He said and I pouted, sitting at the bar. "You are no fun sometimes Conner." I said and he poured me a drink. I downed it before he had even poured theirs and he poured me another, but took my glass. "To Smecker." He said and we took it together.
"Hey guys, I got an idea for the others." I said and told them what I was talking about. They agreed and we got everything ready, Murphy and Conner was hiding behind the counter and Romeo would act like a cop, I would be hiding in a corner, since they don't know I'm with the Saints. We heard a car pull up after a while of sitting and talking and got in our spots. They came in and Dolly went to asking questions and actually thought he was a real cop. Greenly was mumbling to himself and Duffy was trying to calm Dolly down, while looking kinda worried himself.
Murphy and Conner jumped up, spraying them with beer until Duffy said to fucking stop. Dolly fell to his knees and hurried over to Eunice, hugging her. They were laughing and I walked out, behind them. Eunice nodded at me and I had took out a knife and threw it right between Greenly's and Duffy's head. They jumped and turned, hands on their guns and let out a breath when they saw it was me.
"Marietta? What are you doing here?" I was still in my outfit, so Greenly stared for a while, but I walked over and hopped on the bar and Murphy wrapped his arms around my waist and hugged me tight. "Murphy? Marietta?" he asked and we both smiled. "Yepp, Conner get my knife please." I said and he nodded, reaching and pulling it out the wall, I put it back, Greenly's eyes on me of course.
The guys got out of their soaking wet jackets and we poured them a shot. I was next to Eunice, who was sitting next to the guys. The trio of cops was talking to each other and Eunice was showing the shooters file. I got up and grabbed a bottle, took a big gulp and Murphy said they were hitting my cousin in 48 hours. I choked and they looked at me. "Marietta, you alright?" "That soon?" I breathed and he nodded, and then came over to me. "You don't have to come ya know." He whispered and kissed my forehead.
"I'm fine, I want to do this." "Is everything alright?" "Eunice you remember how I didn't ever tell you my last name?" they all nodded, "Yeah, you never told us and neither did Smecker." Greenly said and I shrugged. "It's because Concezio is my cousin." I said and most of their mouths dropped. "You're joking." "No, I'm the daughter of a mob boss from another country, but my mother was Papa Joe's sister." I explained and they took a shot and I saw Conner staring at me.
"You know, we don't even know your last name, you never told us." I looked away and shrugged again, moving away from Murphy, who followed after me. "Come on, it can't be that bad, what is it Marietta?" "Please don't think badly of me, but my full name is Marietta Ella Abby De Argento." I said and they all stared, Murphy even took a step away from me.
"The De Argento's are the most powerful crime family in the world; you are the daughter of the leader?" Duffy said and I nodded, stepping away from everyone. I went to take a drink, but Murphy jerked the bottle from my hand. "You're a part of that family. You know how many lives they have ruined? Please tell me you had nothing to do with any of it." he said and I looked away.
"I was one of the lives that my father ruined, that's why I ran away and came to the states, hoping to escape his gaze. He didn't like that I didn't want to take over after him." I said in a low voice, but they all heard. Eunice came over, and lifted my chin. "Don't worry; I'll personally make sure he doesn't find you again." She said and I smiled. "Thanks, but I already figured it out, I'm almost free from him." I said and she stared at me.
"Only one other person knows I'm here that will tell my father and that's my cousin, but he's going to be dead in a day or two, so I'm almost free." I said and they nodded, Eunice said she had to go and asked the guys to walk her to the door, along with me. Once we were at the door, Conner asked is she wanted to hear the plan and the guys started bickering about it. She said their might be someone else involved, because Panza knew what was going down tonight and just let it happen. "Think we got another fox in the henhouse?" "Seems that way." She said we might have a ghost in the darkness and I tighten my grip on Murphy's hand.
"I doubt it's your father Marietta." I tried to smile, but it wasn't working, Eunice hugged me bye and left. We walked back to the others and I noticed their eyes on me. "I really didn't ever help my father." I said with a sigh and sat down next to Murphy. They left and Romeo said he was going to bed, then left. Murphy turned to me and had a smirk on his face. "So Ella?" "Abby?" Conner said with a grin and I rolled my eyes.
"Oh shut up you two." I said and stood up, letting Murphy's hand go. They both turned and looked at me. "I have to get home." Murphy hopped up and looked at the stairs, then back at me. "I thought you would stay here…with me." "Oh no, I'm not being kept up all damn night by you two!" Conner said, getting up and looking at us both. "No, I have to get back and get my shit together, plus I need a shower and different clothes." I said and Conner walked off, Murphy said he would walk me home and we left.
Well the cats out of the bag now, better now than later I guess.
